Likewise there were CONS who thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread when he was Johnson's most trusted and closest advisor.

Who now because he's saying negatives re Johnson and the government are turning on him.

Frankly I never have and never will believe or trust any of the grouping of Johnson, his Ministers or Cummings.

Some Cons didn't even condemn the ridiculous Barnard Castle fairytale.
While at the time he was apparently Johnson's trusted, in full, advisor.

I have no idea of your personal view of him at all, I don't think to be fair to you, you said much at all.
However possibly any hypocrisy is on both sides.

Not as to myself, since I neither like or trust or believe Johnson or Cummings.

The only thing I may be possibly right on, was at the time of the Barnard Castle fairytale, which Johnson fully supported him on too unbelievably.

I said I felt Cummings knew too much politically possibly damaging against this PM, which if he was ever discarded, he would start to reveal publicly somehow.

…is there any hypocrisy or anything else …?…there are no more than a handful of posts and most of those are updates../…media stories….

…that doesn’t mean that there is ‘no truth’, it just means that he has no integrity when he was happy to be part of it all…less birds of a feather and more snakes of a slither….

Analysis: Cummings' day of chaos is wrong - what else is too?

The most extraordinary part of Dominic Cummings' evidence so far has been his
colourful description of Downing Street disengaging from Covid on March 12 last year
because of a possible US bombing of Iraq and the PM's girlfriend going "crackers" about
a story in The Times about Dilyn the dog.

The only problem is that Cummings has got his dates wrong, writes Gordon Rayner.


The Dilyn the dog story actually appeared in the Times on March 11, the day before,
meaning the picture of chaos he paints cannot be right.

It's a serious accusation to level at his former colleagues, and a clear attempt to get
revenge on Ms Symonds, who he blames in part for his ousting last November.

For someone who rages about the media getting things wrong, shouldn't he have made
sure he got his facts straight about such an important point? He has had six months to
prepare for this moment, so nailing down dates with a quick Google search should have
been possible.

That’s the trouble with these enquiries .. this is all just from his viewpoint / recollection .. it could be complete fabrication or massively exaggerated.

Beth Rigby is having a field day on Twitter as we speak ... given her recent suspension I expected her to be more reserved but no she’s doing her usual wise after the event scaremongering all based on one man’s recollections ?!?

The Matt Hancock stuff is pretty believable, but then again, Priti Patel was was found guilty of horrific bullying by an independent investigation and nothing happened to her, so I doubt anything will happen to Matt Hancock. This government isn't big on enforcing accountability.

One thing he's dead right on is the disgraceful delay of any public inquiry not even beginning for almost a year yet.
He's spot on as to that.
It is a mighty insult to those who have lost loved ones unnecessarily because of Johnson and his government's actions or inactions.

He got that dead right.
No need for it to be delayed by this deceitful PM for another year at least.

Johnson knows what evidence is coming from the families, who got it quickly too, even before they lost their loved ones unnecessarily , that's why it's being held off.
It's why he never met with them either!!!!.

Actually most of the time except for referring to his notes, he is looking directly at the questioner, and at the others present too.

He's looking pretty confident in his dealing with the questions.
His former employer, wouldn't even attempt to answer a question properly.

Amazing how to Cons, this guy is now wrong, despite the man Johnson declaring Cummings as having full integrity.

Nice to see like myself the public in that poll don't trust at all both of them.
Not that to me polls mean much at all.


Beats me how 40%+ still would vote for Johnson then.

No understanding possible for me as to the minds of hard-line Con supporters however

It's kind of sad to see so many people discount what's being said because their loyalty to Boris and the Tories overwrites their common sense (and their morality).

Dominic Cummings is gross, but it's always worth paying heed to someone in his position, he knows that people won't believe him, that the tory cult will paint him out to be the devil and that it would be easier for him to toe that line rather than set fire to it but he did it anyway. Why? It's probably because there's more than a little bit of truth in what he's saying.

What I did appreciate was his confirmation of what hundreds of thousands at least of those left bereaved know already, that their loved ones lives were lost unnecessarily.

We KNOW that, we who have lost loved ones unnecessarily, we have the evidence ready to produce to the full public inquiry.

I share Cummings belief that it's a disgrace the public inquiry is not even looking at being started until another year almost.

Plus, I appreciated him running himself down too.

Also too, when asked, he said he had documented evidence he would hand to this inquiry.
He will have gathered all he needed, no doubt I have as to that.

It is no surprise to me that hard-line Cons and the more closet hard-line Cons.
Will do all they can to shield Johnson now dismissing Cummings.
They won't allow any criticism of Johnson and his deceitful Cabinet.

Johnson himself who described Cummings as a man of integrity.

No
he is due to be in Parliament
facing the shadow health minister today
early 10:30AM.



[Mr Hancock is set to appear in the House of Commons
at around 10:30 BST to answer an urgent question
tabled by Labour about the government's handling of Covid.
He is also expected to lead a coronavirus press
conference later in the day.
Labour's shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth
said Mr Cummings' "very grave allegations" appeared
to be "well-founded" and the health secretary
would have to "give us an explanation" in order
for the country to "maintain confidence in him".]

Why am I not surprised at your statement there.
Anything to protect Johnson and the Cons.
I didn't see you condemning Cummings with him breaking lockdown rules.

My family,MY FAMILY have evidence to present to any public inquiry when YOUR Johnson DARE to open it up.
That along with thousands of other Families show their loved ones lives were lost unnecessarily by official and government incompetence.

Thankfully most got their evidence quickly before any doctoring of documentation was able to be done.

It may well be revenge, if he's now admitting as he did yesterday he got things wrong, badly wrong, and that others did .
I welcomed that!!!
Plus at last someone in the know of government at the time now admitting thousands of loved ones lives were lost unnecessarily.
Maybe you don't the give a damn about that,those who've lost loved ones that way do most certainly.

Hard-line Cons supporting this extreme PM are unbelievable
Always denying what seems while not knowing or bothered as to what is.
Just to deflect criticism of the most politically dishonest and most deceitful PM ever likely in this Country.

I don't now care if your lot jump in on me for this post, or even if I get another infraction for defending my own.
I'll fight for my loved ones and even moreso the loved ones who've been robbed of their lives too soon.

Of course he won't be a credible source to you.. he's attacking your PM.
Who should be above criticism.
I'm not going to waste my time.
I'll avoid all your posts in future.

As to bots too..
I don't know if who you lost was lost because of contracting covid from infected patients sent back to care homes and infecting others there including staff.

All losses of life are crushing and I was saddened to learn of your loss.

When a loss of life shouldn't have happened at all even worse.
Which we as a family and thousands of other families know for certain did now.

Cummings only confirmed yesterday what those thousands of families have known from their own evidence for near a year now.
I've actually been saying it since I came back on here in June last year.

You and Kazanne can choose to diminish and dismiss my points all you wish..
I have a still heartbroken Mother at home who'll never be the same after losing her Sister.

Who also knows that Sister would be here now without being put in danger by this PM and his government's policy.

Now you and Kazanne can do all you can to deflect from the PMs attitude to this all you like.

Don't though insult us with people want to blame someone.
I wish I didn't have to blame anyone, however from the evidence I have and as a family we have.
We know we have to.

You defend Johnson all you like.

We know for certain, and the public inquiry will as well when we eventually get to put our case to it, when the PM you voted for, dares get it opened that is.

I'd be as furious if Corbyn or any other political leader had acted so incompetently and dangerously on this.
It's not about blaming anyone at all..
That is grossly insulting from you frankly.

To lose anyone unnecessarily should never be acceptable.
I doubt it would be even to you, if this had been a Labour or Lib Dem. government in power.
Rather than your Con one..
I couldn't care what government it is.
This one has robbed my family of 2 members by incompetently putting them in danger in care homes with no protection.

Diminish that and dismiss it all you wish to deflect criticism from this PM.

Wrong,everyone isn't praising him.

I'm not., He did highlight yesterday what I and thousands of other families have known for near a year now.
That's all.
He confirmed what we were told and found out via official sources and medical records got quickly.

Other than that I have no respect for Cummings.

What is interesting though, are those who deflected from and defended him who are Con supporters at the time he broke lockdown rules.
Against those of us who didn't and found his story ridiculous.
Those Cons now against him because he dares criticise the PM.

At least he didn't just criticise the PM and useless Hancock.
However he did criticise himself too, taking blame in part on himself rightly too.

No wrong however, not everyone.

I couldnt agree more.

No Government was prepared for this Pandemic...no matter who was in Government mistakes would have been made and lives would have been lost as a result. I can pretty much guarantee that other countries have made the same mistakes by not reacting quicker. Mistakes were made, sadly they cost lives but none of it was deliberate.
What I cant stand is the behaviour of this pathetic man. The pathetic stories he told when he broke lockdown...he sat there and lied to EVERYBODY and now as he dishes the dirt and 'squeals' on his former party and finally admitting to lying to us all over breaking lockdown....he has nothing going for him whatsoever...he is just a nasty, lying bitter man.

Yes ,Zizu,The press are useless at conveying the truth,as i said when it comes to harry and Megan the press are scum now all of a sudden its fact,lol,the bloke lied and that from his own mouth,he cannot be trusted, plus he was sacked so is out for revenge,imo.:wavey:

The fact you can't tell the difference between celebrity gossip and political coverage says a lot, it's really quite grim you think that gossip columns about a celeb couple are the same as political reporting.

If someone who was in the inner circle is alleging such serious accusations, it's worth paying heed to, worth investigating. Choosing to ignore it because it doesn't bode well for you beloved Boris is choosing to be ignorant.

The media have been on a mission all through the pandemic, anyone that denies that is kidding themselves

There will be an inquiry. People will have a chance to air their views. Cummings has a clear agenda and everything he utters should be framed with that in mind

What mission is that? Because from what I've seen, the major publications have been all too easy on the tories considering all the **** ups and outright corruption we've seen so far. If this was another party, the media would have crucified them by now.

I trust Cummings as far as I could throw him, but it makes little sense to go up there and lie through his teeth when common sense dictates that people will be looking for reasons to discount him from the off due to their Tory loyalty/indoctrination. There's enough reason to investigate his claims and as long as it's not a kangaroo court that handles it, I'd be willing to bet that a lot of his claims won't be completely off base, whether that will have any affect on the tory voters is another issue.

Oh Kizzy, Johnson does nothing wrong though you know.
Yeah right.

Of course Johnson is complicit in all the deceit and lies of his Ministers and advisors.

However he's also the perfect example of it because he's given them his perfect example of it too.

It was grim looking at my facebook when all this was going on, so many people were angry, not at the accusations but at the fact that they considered Cummings a 'grass'.

They were unbothered about all the wrongdoing, they were just upset he brought light to all of it. Seeing stuff like that just reaffirms everything that I believe this country has become, weak, subservient, spineless.

The truth will out..

What's all this 'grass' rubbish? If there has been wrongdoing by the PRIME minister, the highest seat in politics. Then that surely needs addressing?

Otherwise public faith in politicians and the establishment in general to be above reproach is built on nothing.

On Dominic Cummings’s infamous photo of a No10 white board, one can see,
referring to a scenario in which the NHS was overwhelmed, the words: “Who
do we not save?” The answer, one of

the great scandals of the pandemic, turned out to be care home residents.

Yesterday, Matt Hancock was grilled repeatedly over Mr Cummings’s accusation that the Government did not put a shield
around care homes as promised – and it was claimed that the Health Secretary

lied to the Prime Minister about patients being tested before they were discharged back into them. For 24 hours, Mr Hancock
talked about being willing to give answers without straightforwardly supplying one.

On March 19, 2020, hospitals were required by the NHS and the Department of Health and Social Care to start discharging as many patients as they could in

order to free up beds. Between mid-March and mid-April, 25,000 people were released into care homes: there was no
requirement to test. Many other countries made a similar mistake, it is true – nevertheless, the Office for National Statistics
later calculated that care homes

accounted for roughly half of our excess deaths between March 7 and September 18. The policy was reversed on April 15.


Mr Hancock’s half explanation of this horrific blunder is that testing would have been nice but that Britain did not have the
capacity for it yet. In fact, testing was not the only problem: early advice given to the care sector was remarkably lax and the
Government took its time to advise against visits by

those who were “generally unwell”. All that aside, even if the testing capacity was not in place in hospitals, the question still
stands: why on Earth did the NHS release potentially sick patients, some of the most vulnerable, back into the one place
where the virus was guaranteed to thrive?

Mr Hancock appeared reluctant to be drawn on whether he assured Boris Johnson that patients were being tested at that
precise moment or would be in the future – it seems it was more of an aspiration than a fact – but the public, and particularly
those who lost loved ones, has a right to know. If the attitude was that the lives of one set of patients could be placed in
jeopardy in order to prevent the NHS from being overwhelmed – something that, in the event, did not happen – that would
have totally inverted the basic principles of healthcare.

To hard-line Con supporters Kizzy the truth is anything that doesn't get at Johnson and the government.

If Cummings is a grass, a liar , a fantasist, who was the man who employed him and raised him up.
What does that make of his judgement.

The story when he broke lockdown rules was fully supported by Johnson and Ministers were rolled out to defend Cummings.

What does that say about them that they'd support a fantasist, a liar and a grass.

The greatest one for me though.
Is when the media were character assassinating the Milibands deceased Father, then after that Corbyn too.
Then the press must have something.
No condemnation of that from Con supporters.

Odd that.

I'm just at the point where I think anyone who votes Tory is just a spineless coward desperate to please their overlord. To look at this story and screech 'grass' at the person potentially exposing several major scandals is truly pathetic.

This country is full of weak willed morons that are all too happy to let corruption run riot as long as it's their 'side' doing it.

He didn't say majority of the public.
He said those who voted Con.

Which was a minority of the public.
Around 43% in 2019.
Around 36% in the current council elections.

That makes well over the majority of the voting public even not supporting the Cons.
With even in 2019, 57% rejecting the Con stance.

Under PR this lot may not even have been leading a government never mind sitting with an overinflated unrepresentative 80 overall majority

Labour is irrelevant, they'll never know power again because they are incompetent flops. I have no time for 'well look at this irrelevant party that's not in control' or 'all politicians are the same and so I accept things as they are.' Both are bull**** points that defend the status quo, and I have no patience for it.

I don't accept incompetence and corruption from people who should be competent and above corruption, regardless of who they are. I supported the Lib Dems until they decided to suck on David Cameron's arsehole and now they're all dead to me, I supported Labour until they showed themselves to be highly incompetent and so they no longer have my support. When a party I vote for fails to do as they should, they no longer have my support. This country would be better if more people treated politics as I do rather than pretending that it's like the ****ing premier league and be loyal to parties when it should be the other way around.

But no, we are a nation of fools that wouldn't know critical thinking if it shat on our breakfasts. We only know to support the tories no matter what.

I'm selling up in England and clearing off with my Mum to her home in the Republic of Ireland.
A plan I had a couple of years ago.
I see no redeeming qualities in England or from this deceitful lying dangerous government.

I'll put with multi thousands of others all we know for sure to the eventually held, thrown into the long grass public inquiry.
After that I see nothing at all to make me want to stay in the Nation England has particularly sunk to be.
A minority of heartless hardliners ruling the decent majority.
No, not for me that.

And are we OK with this? Basically things were corrupt 2000yrs ago and it must be ever thus?

What happened to civilisation, progression, democracy, justice? All luxuries we can no longer afford?
